What does a Sous Chef do?
Sous Chefs are second-in-command in a kitchen, running services and standing in for the Head Chef. UK roles typically expect 4+ years' brigade experience plus food safety qualifications. Hotels, fine dining, and corporate event venues offer the strongest pay; gastropubs and casual dining sit lower.
